The other side of this potentially selfdestructive behavior is that binge drinking represents conformity to the peer culture, especially in fraternities and soronties, which serve as social centers on many campuses. Most students seen to take an “everybody does it no big deal” attitude toward the behavior. Many find that taking five drinks in a row is fairly typical. As one student at Boston University noted, “Anyone that goes to a party does that or worse. If you talk to anyone college age, it’s normal.” Some colleges and universities are taking steps to make binge drinking a bit less “normal” by means of social control banning kegs, closing fraternities and sororities, encouraging liquor retailers not to sell in high volume to students, and expelling students after three alcohol-related infractions.
